Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumors and cognitive outcome: cure at a price?
Article in Cancer, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundDysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumors (DNETs) are benign glioneuronal tumors that occur in children. These tumors are characterized by seizures, lack of neurologic deficits, and a seemingly benign course after resection.
methodsA retrospective review was conducted of data relating to 11 children diagnosed with DNETs between January 1988 and December 2007 at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. This report documented the clinical features, neurocognitive function, and treatment outcomes in this institutional series.
resultsThe patient cohort included 8 boys and 3 girls (median age at diagnosis, 10 years); all patients presented with seizures: 4 complex partial, 3 generalized tonic-clonic, 2 absence, 1 partial simple, and 1 not classified. Of the 11 patients, 1 died of cardiac fibrosis, and tumors recurred or progressed in 4 (36%) patients. Seizure control was achieved in all patients but 1. Of the 9 patients who completed neuropsychologic testing, only 3 (33%) functioned at or above the expected level of same-age peers.
conclusionsThe high recurrence and progression rates of DNETs and the high rate of abnormal neurocognitive test results noted in the current study highlight the need for regular follow-up and appropriate academic counseling of children with these tumors.
